Approach and Services


guidance

Renée Toth can help you learn how to best help your child.  Renée will meet with you to identify what is needed to help your child. She is available to write and review correspondence, attend school meetings, and advocate on your child's behalf. Renée remains up to date on developments in special education, and regularly attends trainings and classes.


connections

Renée Toth will help you manage your relationships with providers and schools. Her style is to work collaboratively and maximize how your team connects--your child will benefit from the strong connections between home and school. You will feel more confident having Renée as a partner who understands your challenges and gives the support you need.


advocacy

Using an experienced advocate to guide you through your child’s education journey allows you the peace of mind that you are taking the right steps.  Parents often don’t know what to do for their struggling student, and find working with the school teams intimidating. Renée’s advocacy skills help your child receive the education they need—and help you have confidence.
